Through all this I think one needs to define what how they want to access
the camera:
- Simply get the images
- USB
- some sort of smart media
- Control the camera
- just to get images off of it
- manipulate settings and get pictures
- GUI or command line
Most cameras will do some of these, some will do all. So, to say a camera
works is a bit incomplete.
The gphoto site maintain a list of the cameras that work with the two
version of their library (gphoto and gphoto2). Too bad the nice gphoto GUI
only works with the original gphoto lib, which supports far fewer cameras.
The gphoto2 library is limited to a command line app. I have never gotten
gphoto2 to work in konqueror, which has a module for this.
